*********************************

We just get into our hotel and dad is currently taking his shower in his room, his yet to tell me the essence of coming here with me alone, could it be that he wants to spend a special bonding time with me alone, no it's not possible! I know my dad we don't get along pretty well.

I don't know why the sudden feeling of restlessness. That reminds me I need to get Sally's digit as soon as possible, whom should I confront femi, Kabir or Amira? Am a bit confused.

I think I should asked Kabir he can get it from Fatima her best friend.

I called him and after sometime he texted her number for me

No one has the idea of how happy I am to hear my princess voice, I missed her dearly.

"Assalamualaikum" I heard my dad husky voice as he barged into the room.

"Oh Lord not again" I rolled my eyes.

"Bashir" he called as he sat close to me

"I know you don't know the purpose of bringing you here, well I will tell you today, am so excited and proud of your result so as an intelligent guy like you I don't want you to spend the holiday doing nothing I need to support, train and show you the best methods of achieving your goals. Since you said you wanna be an engineer, which is very good and a professional course am so proud of you when you choose it as your course of study so I talked to a friend whom will teach you both practically and Academically for the mean time, you know the wise saying "there is no time to waste time" you need to be ahead of your mates so tighten your belt my son, you shall be this hero and this engineer that no Nigeria has ever produced infact the world at large, understood?

"Am so excited about it dad thank you" I smiled

"Thank God you understood what am saying am not forcing you to study but to use the gift God give you wisely" he added with a proud smile.

"Thanks Dad" I smiled back.

"You might think that I dislike you among my children" he looked at me with an affectionate smile.

"That was then sir" I said shyly

"shall I confess something to you" he furrowed his brows.

"Yes sir" I said gladly.

"You are my favorite child, and am very Grateful to Allah for giving me a blessing like you" he said feelingly

"Like seriously" I said with a cheesy smile.

He nodded his head and I couldn't control the urge of hugging him tightly and happily, I can't even remember the last time we had a good time.

"Let me leave you for a while to rest I need to go for a conference meeting tomorrow as early as 6am" he said and stood up.

"Okay goodnight dad" I uttered.

"That reminds me where is your phone?" He asked.

"Here sir" I handled it to him.

"Good" he blurted.

I don't understand

"This would be a distraction to you, so I will be with it for the rest of our stay here in England" he said as he started walking.

"No but" he plastered back his huskier face.

"You are now an upcoming professional man so build yourself" he added and averted.

I angrily threw the pillows of the bed around the room.

"Damn it I fidgeted.

Now how am I gonna communicate with the love of my life Sally. This man is just a kill joy.
